Last minute deals - Tenerife up to -70%
A Spanish island off the coast of West Africa, Tenerife is the biggest and most populous of the Canary Isles. In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries cartographers called the island la Isla del Infernio: the island of Hell, because of the volcanic activity of Mount Teide. Fortunately, it has shed this grim name and is now a popular holiday destination with people desperate to get away from cold and rainy climates to enjoy some warmth and sunshine.

The Best Things to See and Do in Tenerife
1. The Carnival of Santa Cruz de Tenerife
If you happen to be in Tenerife at the right time of year (about two weeks before Ash Wednesday until shortly after) in February or March, you can see the wonderful spectacle that is this carnival. Considered to be the second best known carnival after Rio de Janeiro's colourful spectacle, the festival kicks off with a parade and continues for days until the ceremony known as the 'burying of the sardine' which is the official end of events. However, the party tends to continue, sparking up again at the weekend! During carnival there are a host of organised official events and a lot of street carnival events, which tends to be an expression of celebration by the local people.
2. Loro Park
Set in the beauty of Puerto de la Cruz, this zoo started life as an aviary, specifically for parrots. It is now home to an enormous range of animals and birds, from tigers to crocodiles, chimpanzees to sea lions.
3. Teide Mountain
The World Heritage site is open 24-hours a day and you can hike up or go by cable car to enjoy the crystal clear air and breath-taking views of the island and the distant ocean. Or you can head to the nearby observatory from which the night sky is observed and recorded. Tours of the observatory are fascinating and well worth the time investment. Should you wish to go further up, to the crater, you will need to acquire a permit well in advance.
4. Whale Watching Tour
Book a place on a boat that will take you out to admire these immense mammals as they go majestically about their own private marine business. The tours vary in cost from €20 up to around €50 and much depends on the size of the boat, the extras included in the price and the length of the tour.
5. Laze on the Beach
With over 400km of beaches – seventeen of which have Blue Flag status – the thing to do in Tenerife is be incredibly laze and simply lie in the sun and enjoy the warmth. Do be safe however, avoid the heat in the middle of the day and use a good quality sun screen to prevent painful sunburn. If the beach is too far away (and you are never really far away from a beach on Tenerife) grab a sun lounger by your hotel pool instead and enjoy the pool-side bar service!
Our Practical Advice for Tenerife
The weather in Tenerife ranges from quite hot to very hot indeed, so be prepared for greater heat than you are perhaps used to, drink plenty of water, and avoid exerting yourself in the middle of the day when it is hottest.
What to pack for a last minute break in Tenerife?
With year round sunshine and warmth, pack light clothes: plenty of swimsuits, shorts, t-shirts and flip-flops. If you are going to be hiking or walking a lot, loose long-sleeved clothes will keep you protected from insects and the sun. Dress codes in Tenerife are fairly laid-back, but one or two smart outfits will ensure that you can get into any unexpected high-class places that take your fancy.
What budget to plan at the last minute?
Plan on needing about €70 or €80 per person per day after accommodation has been secured. This will cover any meals not covered by your package, and any souvenirs, day-trips and transport, so you can make the most of your holiday without fretting about running out of money.
Useful information before going to Tenerife
Tenerife is a Spanish territory and uses the euro for its currency. It is relatively safe, but do use the usual cautions and try to avoid walking about alone or in pairs late at night – there are some illegal immigrants and disenfranchised youths who take advantage of privileged visitors. However this is rare, and most people are warm, welcoming and very friendly.
